Water Village

A trip to Labuan would not
be complete if one does not
visit Kampung Air (Water
Village). There are two main
water villages on Labuan -
Kampung Bebuloh and Kampung
Patau-Patau which are mainly
inhabited by Brunei Malays.

The houses here, which are
built right at the water's
edge, are made of wood and sit
on high stilts, joined
together with a maze of wooden
walkways.

Visitors are free to roam
around the vicinity of the
water villages and observe the
humble lifestyle of a
predominantly fishing
community.

Almost every house owner
here has his own boat. The
houses can be quite large and
they all have cool decorated
verandahs.
